Explanation:

Guide was originally written as a Web Serial Novel from March 25, 2015 to February 26th, 2022, on Wordpress.

In August 2025, the original wordpress version of volume 1 was taken down because a finalized version was published on Amazon, divided into two books.

So Volumes 2-7/Books 3-15 are available on wordpress and royalroad, while Volume 1/Books 1-2 are available on Amazon.

[u/No-Supermarket-6065 → u/doctor_whom_3]

God I need to read that

[u/doctor_whom_3 → u/No-Supermarket-6065]

you should, though it is a best confusing to read rn with the different versions

[u/No-Supermarket-6065 → u/doctor_whom_3]

Oh?

[u/doctor_whom_3 → u/No-Supermarket-6065]

it was originally published as web novel on wordpress, divided into 7 volumes. it was later uploaded to royalroad, but divided into 15 books. its currently being rewritten and published on amazon, divided into roughly the same 15 books as royalroad. Books 1 and 2 are published, but volume 2-7 and books 3-15 of the first draft are available online.

[u/No-Supermarket-6065 → u/doctor_whom_3]

Ah, gotcha.

Now that's something I see referenced way too rarely.
